How often should you replace the brake pads and rotors?

• Inspection-based intervals: replacement depends on driving habits, mileage, and environment; we recommend regular inspections at service intervals to determine exact needs for the 2027 Mercedes-Benz CLA.
• Typical ranges: many drivers see pad replacement between 30,000 and 60,000 miles, while rotors often last longer but may need resurfacing or replacement depending on wear and heat exposure.
• Driving style matters: aggressive driving or frequent heavy braking reduces life expectancy; city stop-and-go driving accelerates pad and rotor wear compared to highway use.
